Vrchmezí, Mountain summit in Eagle Mountains, Czech Republic.
The Hohe Mense rises to an elevation of 1,084 meters above sea level, marking the northernmost peak of the Eagle Mountain ridge along the Czech-Polish border.
The summit once featured the Rübartsch-Baude pavilion and Kaiser-Friedrich-Turm observation tower, established by innkeeper Heinrich Rübartsch before being destroyed by fire in 1946.
The mountain carries three distinct names across different languages: Vrchmezí in Czech, Hohe Mense in German, and Orlica in Polish, reflecting the regional linguistic diversity.
Several marked hiking trails lead to the summit, with access points from nearby villages and convenient connections via Voivodeship road 389 from Duszniki-Zdrój.
The summit serves as a vital water source, giving rise to both the Dědina and Bělá rivers while featuring distinctive mica schist geological formations.
